Exposure, Occurrence, and Chemistry of Fumonisins and their Cryptic Derivatives.
Fumonisins are mycotoxins mainly produced by Fusarium proliferatum and Fusarium verticillioides. Because of their wide distribution, the potential health hazard, and economic significance, they are considered one of the most important mycotoxin classes ...

Integrating gene expression, ecology and mycotoxin production by Fusarium and Aspergillus species in relation to interacting environmental factors [PDF]
Environmental factors, such as water availability (water activity, aw), temperature and their interactions, have a significant impact on the life cycle of mycotoxigenic fungi.

Appropriateness to set a group health‐based guidance value for fumonisins and their modified forms
The EFSA Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM) established a tolerable daily intake (TDI) for fumonisin B1 (FB 1) of 1.0 μg/kg body weight (bw) per day based on increased incidence of megalocytic hepatocytes found in a chronic study with mice.

Analysis of Beer for Fumonisins
Forty-one samples of beer were analyzed for fumonisins B1 and B2 (FB1 and FB2) using an immunoaffinity column cleanup followed by liquid chromatographic (LC) analysis. These samples included three later brand resamplings. All LC analyses were carried out using o-phthaldialdehyde/2-mercaptoethanol (OPA/MCE) and/or 4-fluoro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-F ...

Bone Homeostasis in Experimental Fumonisins Intoxication of Rats
Fumonisins are strongly toxic metabolites of Fusarium proliferatum and Fusarium verticillioides commonly present in corn-based feed. The aim of the study was to evaluate bone homeostasis in experimental fumonisins B1 and B2 intoxication of rats, a ...

Safe food and feed through an integrated toolbox for mycotoxin management: the MyToolBox approach [PDF]
There is a pressing need to mobilise the wealth of knowledge from the international mycotoxin research conductedover the past 25-30 years, and to perform cutting-edge research where knowledge gaps still exist.

A study on non-destructive method for detecting Toxin in pepper using Neural networks [PDF]
Mycotoxin contamination in certain agricultural systems have been a serious concern for human and animal health. Mycotoxins are toxic substances produced mostly as secondary metabolites by fungi that grow on seeds and feed in the field, or in storage.

Cardiovascular Effects of Fumonisins in Swine [PDF]
Fumonisins, mycotoxins produced by Fusarium moniliforme, induce hepatic damage and acute lethal pulmonary edema in swine. We examined the cardiovascular effects of short-term fumonisin exposure in anesthetized and conscious male cross-bred pigs weighing 30-36 kg.
